Old Business
Food and beverages at quarterly meetings.

All-Star Meet with Metro Section
- Group decided not to pursue All-Star meet with Metro Section in November.
- Committee formed to be headed by Adam (WSTA) and Najeeb (WEST) to explore
All-Star possibilities.
Awards Banquet
We want to make the event as low cost as possible
- Patrick (EDGE) suggests a park. Largest cost would be awards
- Awards would be for speed and character. An awards committee would vote on the awards. The banquet would encompass a year, not just a season.
- Motion (Patrick): Have a banquet
- 2nd and passed.
New Business
Meet Problems
- Section growing, meets are limited.
- Adam (Westside) suggests more meets
- Adrian (Porter) suggests having A min and Amax meets. Also suggests combining parent bodies so that more people are involved in putting on meets.
- WVY asserts that it is not feasible to go to two meets in a month.
- Najeeb suggests combining Ys to host a meet at LMU before JOs
- Bettie proposes 2/3 clubs can have dual/tri meets at any time. The responsibility would fall on the teams to plan meet. She also proposes a meet for Sr. Kids falling just under standard of Janet Evans, Swim Meet of Champions, etc.
- Jon (TSM) suggests distance meet to promote those events for kids who excel at them.
- Motion (Patrick): Complement A meets with BC meets (SC or LC) to shorten LC meets
- 2nd and passed
- Need to fill July 16-17 vacancy. Najeeb volunteers to attempt to get LMU with help from another Y
- May meet = South Bay Orcas “Cinco de Mayo” BC
- June meet = COLA. Bettie has requested that COLA get blocks to double end the meet. COLA also inserts that it may be possible to have the distance events on Friday.
